If a "mini-FPC" were to be created to help popularize the Pascal language and get beginners interested and up to speed, it would be more useful to provide a simple IDE than a stripped-down compiler. The console FP IDE has never worked well for me (crashes a lot) and Lazarus is very large and intimidatingly complex. I'd rather see some effort put into an easy-to-install beginner's programming environment than in pulling features out of the compiler. I know this isn't the forum for that discussion, but I did want to make the suggestion.
Maybe more effort should be put in the 'education' version of lazarus. Someone already started this. Michael. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
